  • Incorporating Digital Images Into Class Projects

    Funded May 17, 2011

    It is touching to know members of the community are actively looking for ways to make a difference in our school. You have made a difference because we received vital pieces of equipment for a basic Graphic Arts program that we did not possess prior to your involvement. Thanks.

    The cameras are first being used on a calender project where the students will make calenders with pictures relevant to their lives. The calenders should rival a similar product one might be able to purchase at Walgreens or through other photo services. I am hoping the students recognize the potential for this project to serve as a gift in this coming holiday season. This scenario would enable your contribution to additionally impact the families of my students as well!

    The cameras will continue to be used upon student request for projects throughout the year and hopefully for years to come if they can hold up to student use. I thought it was interesting as I reviewed the student thank you notes that many students pledged to take good care of these cameras. Without a doubt, the students are appreciative of having new equipment available for their use. Again, thank you for your thoughtfulness in supporting my project on Donors Choose. ”

  • Our Students Are Stars!!!!

    Funded Jun 27, 2011

    "A hero is somebody who is selfless,

    who is generous in spirit, who just tries to give back as much as possible and

    help people. A hero to me is someone who saves people and who really deeply

    cares."(Quote by Debi Mazar).

    To the students of my class and myself,

    you are all heroes! You have done such a selfless act, by donating to us. This

    gift gives us hope for a brighter future, full of accomplishments and success. My

    students are now able to show their successes and be acknowledged for them.

    We are using the camera, printer, photo

    paper and ink cartridges to help capture and showcase the students'

    accomplishments. We are also using these tools to help our students, who are

    more visual learners or who are non verbal, be able to express their needs and

    wants through real life examples. Our students learn best through real life

    experiences and pictures.

    Thank you for helping to give voices to

    those that are not able to express them, accomplishment to those who do not

    always see themselves as intelligent, and hope to all of us, because strangers

    saw us in need and helped! ”

    With gratitude,

    Ms. Sullivan

  • Calculators for Kids: Essential Tool for Success

    Funded May 17, 2011

    Thank you very much for your gift of three calculators to the free rental program at our school. You have made it possible for three more of our students to have access to the technology that will enable them to study higher level math concepts.

    Many of our students have trouble purchasing their own graphing calculator and this will allow more students to have the use of this calculator through the year and for their college readiness tests. These calculators will be available year after year for many students' use.

    Donors like you give students the chance to achieve to their upmost potential.”

  • Look Mom I'm a Scientist

    Funded Apr 10, 2011

    Thank you all again for your generous donations. My students are just beginning their science fair projects for this fall. They were very excited to find out that they would not have to purchase the project boards and they were surprised that people they don't even know were willing to do this for them. The pictures I posted are of the students looking at past year's projects to get ideas. So far this year's topics range from looking at how DNA evidence can be processed in forensics to how to build a better stealth plane.

    I'm so glad to be connected with such a wonderful organization and I deeply appreciate your time and donations. I believe the process of science is a very important concept for students to learn. I'm so glad that all of you agree with me. Let's keep science alive and well in our schools!

    Thank you so much!

  • The Hunger Games... Get Hungry For Reading!

    Funded Mar 30, 2011

    I cannot thank you enough for your generosity in funding my project GET HUNGRY FOR READING. Because of your generosity, my students will have the opportunity to find their passion for reading. I'm excited to be able to include The Hunger Game series in my lessons for next year. It is hard to find a book that not only interests students but me hungry to read more. This series does that and I cannot or my students to experience that next year. Thanks to you, they will!

    Much Thanks!”

    With gratitude,
